7. A box is pulled straight across the floor at a constant speed. It is pulled with a horizontal force of 48 N.

Leya [2.2K]2 years ago

Answer:

a)Taking into consideration Newton’s second law, we know that

Net_Force = mass * acceleration

Since the box is pulled at constant speed, the acceleration is equal to zero.

This means that

Net_Force  = 0 N

b) Force of friction

The net force is equal to the sum of all forces,

Net_Force   = Force_applied - Friction

We found that Net_Force  = 0, which means

Friction = Force_applied = 48 N

c) If the box comes to a stop. And the applied force becomes zero, the friction force becomes also zero.

Friction  = 0 N

An object moving 20 m/s
yan [13]

Answer:

<u>We are given:</u>

initial velocity (u) = 20m/s

acceleration (a) = 4 m/s²

time (t) = 8 seconds

displacement (s) = s m

<u />

<u>Solving for Displacement:</u>

From the seconds equation of motion:

s = ut + 1/2 * at²

replacing the variables

s = 20(8) + 1/2 * (4)*(8)*(8)

s = 160 + 128

s = 288 m

Why does a balloon filled with the air from your lungs sink to the ground but a balloon filled with Helium floats ?
hoa [83]

Helium is lighter than air from the lungs.

Explanation:

A balloon filled with the air from lungs will sink to the ground but a balloon filled with Helium floats because helium is lighter than air.

Air is a mixture of many gases.

The air from the lungs is predominantly made up of carbon dioxide and water vapor.

  • Gram per mole of carbon dioxide is 44. Water vapor is 18.
  • Compared to helium which is 4, we see that the gas is lighter.
  • Since the gas is lighter, it will float in air.
  • The main component of air around us is nitrogen gas with a gram per mole of 28.
  • A balloon filled with more of air from the lungs weigh more than that will filled air around and even far more than helium gas.
  • This will cause a helium filled balloon to float.

Determine the change in electric potential energy of a system of two charged objects when a -2.1-C charged object and a -5.0-C c
elena55 [62]

Answer:

Change in electric potential energy ∆E = 365.72 kJ

Explanation:

Electric potential energy can be defined mathematically as:

E = kq1q2/r ....1

k = coulomb's constant = 9.0×10^9 N m^2/C^2

q1 = charge 1 = -2.1C

q2 = charge 2 = -5.0C

∆r = change in distance between the charges

r1 = 420km = 420000m

r2 = 160km = 160000m

From equation 1

∆E = kq1q2 (1/r2 -1/r1) ......2

Substituting the given values

∆E = 9.0×10^9 × -2.1 ×-5.0(1/160000 - 1/420000)

∆E = 94.5 × 10^9 (3.87 × 10^-6) J

∆E = 365.72 × 10^3 J

∆E = 365.72 kJ

A 5000 kg African elephant has a resting metabolic rate of 2500 W. On a hot day, the elephant's environment is likely to be near
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

36 kg

Explanation:

To answer this question, a few assumptions have to be made:

  • That the temperature on the day is 35 °C
  • That all the heat from the elephant is goes to warming/evaporating the water on the surface of the elephant

Energy released per hour = 2500 J/s * 3600 s = 9 000 000 J

Q = mcΔT

9 000 000 J= m *4.186 J/g-K * (373K - 308K) + m*2260 J/g

m =  36 000 g = 36 kg
